tBy telegraph to the Dispatch.l
MILWAUKEE, Wis, May 3.-,John p.
Tarbell, a laborer, of Lyons, Wis,
drove to farmhouse three miles from
Vienna with his dying wife yesterday,
who, he said, had been assassinated
while seated beside him in a buggy
holding her baby to her breast. Last
night Tarbell was arrested, charged
with attempting to kill her. He tells u
rambling story to the effect that while
returning home from a visit to his
wifc's father, at Caldwell's Prairie, they
were oyertaken by two men in buggy,
who opened fire upon them. His wife
was shot in the back and himself
through the arm. His story was SO
disconnected that he was placed in Jail.
His wife, who ut last accounts was still
alive, has failed to recover conscious
ness. Her wound is powder-burned,
and the sleeve of Tarbell's coat, where
the ball penetrated, is also burned by
powder. His revolver has been found
and is empty. The whole affair is
shIOuded in mystery.

tanned the point Of order, and mo-
ton was made and carried tabling the

question of the right to elect senator

say they did not believe in the cOnsti-
tutiOnahty of the act, but as they were
members of the Legislature they would
take part in whatever action the Legis-
lature might take in the matter. 1t is
